I spent the last year learning about and buying daylilies, I should have said. So now it is finally spring (or so the calendar says) it hailed/snowed here yesterday and you could see your breath out side. I've had enough winter to last a lifetime after this past one! The daylilies are starting to arrive! Good thing I caught that sale Menards had on landscape timbers!
Still not sure if I have enough! I do want to add some seedling beds later this Spring/Summer. May use a different wood for those and put them over on the lot.
Not sure if you can really tell any size from this pic but hopefully it will give an idea of what I am looking at. The pile to the left is a burn pile we have already cut and picked up.
The landscape timbers are for the raised beds going in our yard as it is now. That will change some also as we move our privacy fence over. I can't wait!!
The beds are pretty basic. My SO wants to get weed eater happy on anything that is not inside of some type of bed (working on that). I have three 8' x 4' rectangle beds ready. He is building two 4' x 4' beds later today.
This is how he did the corners. I like the way they look.
I have started to plant them now that the daylilies have started to arrive. I can't wait until they are finished, the mulch is all down and I can see some blooms!
That is an owl I put on the one to keep the neighbors cats from thinking this is their new giant litter box. Seems to be working so far.
I hope there is no more rain today, I really need to get some serious planting done.
